Let's give it a try.  There's always the option of reverting patches
or using a sticky tag for a little while if need be.

For regressions, it would be nice to have a script to compare japi
output and notice new problems.  These could go to the new testing
mailing list... that would be helpful since it would be notification
of another kind of bug.

Both good points, I agree.
